We 2-man/duoed a Charizard raid, and is it possible to defeat a dragon claw Charizard with 2 trainers?

While preparing for Entei Raid next month, bioweapon and I decided to power up a little bit more our Golems in order to attempt duoing Charizard. Here's our team:

BIOWP:
1. Golem 2691cp 14/14/15 L35 RT+SE
2. Golem 2665cp 15/11/15 L34.5 RT+SE
3. Golem 2660cp 15/10/15 L34.5 RT+RB
4. Golem 2652cp 15/10/14 L34.5 RT+SE
5. Omastar 2325cp 15/12/10 L31 RT+RB (Lucky for him!)

EpiCrimson:
1. Golem 2825cp 15/15/14 L38 RT+SE
2. Golem 2660cp 13/14/10 L35.5 RT+SE
3. Golem 2654cp 13/10/12 L35.5 RT+SE
4. Golem 2601cp 15/12/6 L34.5 RT+SE
5. Golem 2451cp 7/15/15 L31 RT+SE

Our team proves that you don't need to have Golems at high 90 IVs and fully maxed to defeat a Charizard raid by 2 people!

All you need to do, is to get as much Golems as possible to the final breakpoint of Rock Throw, which is level 34.5 for 15 attack. And, battle any Charizard unless it has dragon claw, DC Charizard is very hard to defeat, as the Charizard could sweep several Golems by spamming Dragon Claws, not to mention the fast animation window of DC, making dodging hard and greatly drop the players' dps.

The moveset of Charizard boss we successfully defeat is Air Slash/Overheat, we tried one with dragon claw, but we failed miserably, I wonder if it is possible to 2-man a dragon claw Charizard with all maxed out Golems?

Anyways, here's the video of us attempting to beat Charizard, from failure to success: https://youtu.be/xr7TAOU36r4

Thanks for the shoutout!
I’d like to add that:
1. SE is better than RB if the Golem can complete 3+ Stone Edge cycles; for final rushing (~20 seconds on the clock), RB is better as you can use 2 RB but zero SE in those short time. I CTM’d one of the RB Golem to SE after yesterday’s duo attempt on Dragon Claw Charizard.
2. Breakpoint is very important. If you check our video, you will find that after our first failed attempt, I powered up my 4th Golem right away to reach its final breakpoint at level 34.5. Then we pulled it off.
3. Dodge bug seems to have been fixed? Or at least not as frequently as before? That’s to be confirmed.

Looking forward to do trio Entei with you on the first day!

Awesome work!

Pokebattler's simulation says under "No dodging" attack strategy, Air Slash/Dragon Claw Charizard can be duo'd with 5 or 6 L35 RT/SE Golems for each player (ATK 15). Fire Spin/Dragon Claw is basically the same but a little easier.

Good luck next round!
